Question

you are making a rectangular table. The area of the table should be 10 ft^2. You want the length of the table to be 1 ft shorter than twice its width. What should the dimensions of the table be?

This question has to be quadratic equation!
I really need to know the answer, because I have a test tomorrow. THANK YOU

LW = Area

L = 2W - 1

Substitute 2W-1 for L.

(2W-1)W = 10

Work it from there.
